SPJIMR PGPFMB (Post Graduate Programme in Family Managed Business) is a better and clear choice between the two.

This program was launched by SPJIMR in the year 1997, so it is quite a renowned program. This program has a network of 4000+ alumni to take guidance from. This program offers a classroom learning experience, and it last for 18 months. 

The fee for the program is 16 lac for 18 months. While the GFMB program was launched recently by SP Jain Global, so if you have a choice, then I would recommend you to go for PGPFMB.

All of the options you've mentioned are reputable institutions with strong programs in their respective fields. However, the best choice for you will depend on your individual interests, goals, and priorities.

• The branches CSE, Electronics, and MNC(Math and Computing) offer better job opportunities with higher packages in comparison to other branches. Thus if you are in desperate need of a job, these branches will serve you best.
• Mechanical Engineering is a branch best suited for those targeting a government job. This branch too has decent job opportunities considering the fact that India sets up more manufacturing sectors under Make in India initiative.
• Engineering Physics is a core branch that has little to offer in terms of exposure and opportunities. I won’t suggest you go for this unless you are extremely passionate about Physics. You can take it if you are planning a branch change if you want to clear UPSC CSE.

Lastly, my suggestion would be to target top NITs instead and not go for a mediocre branch. Additionally, you may want to reach out to current students or alumni of each institution to get a sense of their experiences.

My friend is an NIT Jalandhar pass out so I can speak about that only. She regretted getting admission into NIT Jalandhar. She faced some serious problems

• Faculty: The professors were below average in their teaching methods. Most lacked the basic knowledge and just read out from books. Moreover, if you don’t win their favor you get fewer marks in assignments. This affects your overall CGPA.

• Crowd: It will be hard to find a diverse crowd here as most of the students hail from Punjab itself. Even their language is common within the campus.

• Placements: Talking specifically about Mechanical Engineering placements, the condition is pretty bad. The average package this year was INR 7.87 LPA while the highest CTC was just INR 8.4 LPA.

• Hostels: The first and second-year hostels do not have Wi-Fi connections which is a major drawback. Hostels 3-7 are also averagely built. Mega Hostels have better facilities in comparison to other hostels at NIT Jalandhar.

These are some shortcomings of NIT Jalandhar which might affect your overall experience. You can research the same for NIT Rourkela and make a comparison. In case NIT Rourkela is even worse, then NIT Jalandhar is your last option.

Whenever you are in a dilemma of choosing an MBA program you need to consider 2 very important things.

• MBA does not just mean learning the curriculum, it has a higher picture that includes; the tag attached, the alumni network you get access to, etc
• Another major thing to consider is the cost-benefit analysis. Will the high fees you spend bring back favorable results?

Once you have done this basic analysis, go on and choose an MBA program that suits your needs best.

Your question is regarding an online MBA from the University of Bradford. One thing you need to know is that no matter how good the university is, an online MBA is not as impactful as an offline MBA. The lack of contact hours, peer learning, and the network does not do justice to the MBA program.

ISB Hyderabad on the other hand is a recognized brand and its global rankings are a testament to its worth and brand. ISB is ranked 44th best program in the list of top 100 global MBAs (FT Rankings). Not many MBA programs can match that level let alone online programs.

The most important thing to consider is the cost analysis benefit and the quality of learning rendered by both programs.
